Fab Friday Challenge Blog - Challenge 33 - Sale-A-Bration Sneak Peek!

I've been sneaking a bit of time here and there to play with the schtuff I got from the upcoming Occasions catalog PLUS Sale-A-Bration is coming too, and as a demonstrator, I've already been able to earn FREE SCHTUFF!!! So when I saw this sketch, I knew which set would be perfect for it. Lookie:

GOJUS! (YILM)! I struggle with sketches like this that are very symmetric, but I think I managed to pull it off. I made the lettering on the label look very dimensional by using a marker of the same color to create "shadows" behind all the lettering. Once I sponged the very outside of the circle, suddently the lettering just "pops" above the surface .

Sale-A-Bration is right around the corner, so feel free to drop me an email if you are interested in having a great party for your friends learning to make cards like this!
